Sorry it's taken so long to get a post up but better late than never.
DEBORAH ANN was born 5th February, 1:10am - it was rather quick, she was delivered by a paramedic on my living room floor. We were planning a home birth but didn't expect her to arrive quite so quickly. Just 1 hour and 10 minutes of labour. Thankfully everything was ok and the paramedic was great, the midwives didn't even arrive until after the placenta had been delivered.
We spent the first two weeks constantly breast feeding as I was determined to make it work, but after seeing a specialist had to make the difficult decision to give up again and give her formula as my body wasn't producing enough milk. It's difficult to trust God when things are not going the way you planned but I know He's got the bigger picture.
The older 3 children are absolutely in love with the new baby and have been great, we are slowly getting into a kind of routine and fitting in some school work so things are starting to settle down. We're just praising God that we have 4 wonderful blessings and praying for the strength and wisdom to bring them up in His way.
